Lubricating oil purchase misunderstanding you know

You must buy thicker oil

The traditional impression is that the thicker something is, the better it must be because of the amount of stuff it contains. There is no denying that thick has its benefits, but the trend in automotive lubricants these days is that the lower the better.

Thickness is called viscosity in lubricants. The higher the viscosity, the thicker the lubricant. Lubricants with higher viscosity have better oil film protection, stronger sealing, and better engine protection at high temperatures. However, all of this is based on your car in the case of suitable to start to play a role, if used in today's cars, it will cause low-temperature starting difficulties, power loss, cleaning effect is reduced, poor cooling, residual carbon and other phenomena.

API Grade

According to the regulations of American Petroleum Institute, API SA, SB, SC, SD, SE, SF, SG, SH, SJ,SL,SM,SN, from “SA” to “SN”, every increment of a letter, generally speaking, the performance of the oil will be higher than the previous one, that is to say, the performance of the oil will be higher than the previous one, that is to say, the performance of the oil will be higher than the previous one, that is to say, the performance of the oil will be higher than the previous one. That is, the later the letter, the higher the quality level.

However, not every lubricant can be certified by the API, for example, the following lubricants. The lubricant below shows that it meets the requirements of API SM. Note that the word “meets” is only a form of publicity for the manufacturer, but it is not known whether it meets the standard or not.

Select foreign lubricants

This is an extension of the above problem, individual counterfeit and shoddy products pulled down the wind of domestic products, the pursuit of high-level oil, foreign brands of oil, in fact, this is an incorrect oil phenomenon. In fact, this is a typical “cheap no good” mentality, do not know that some things are not the more expensive the better. There are different types of motor oils, each with different viscosity and heat resistance, so it is important to choose the most suitable oil for replacement.

Ribang products have been certified by Porsche, Volvo, Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, Land Rover, American Petroleum Institute (API), American Automobile Manufacturers Association (SAE), European Lubricant Industry and Technology Association (ACEA), and is a member of China Lubricant Industry Association (CLIA). The product certification is real and verifiable, and the quality can stand the test.
